[applause] do we settle for a slow decline? or do we reach for an america with a growing economy and a flagging middle class -- thriving middle-class? that is the america that i see. we might not be there yet, but we know where this country needs to go. we see a future where we invest in american innovation and american ingenuity. where we export more goods, creating more jobs at home. making it easier to start a business, and inventions. where we build a home run clean energy industry. i do not want to see new solar panels, electra cars, or advanced batteries manufactured in europe or asia. i want to see them made right here in the u.s.a. by american workers.

so we've used some gis projections and we have had to use a two meter sea level rise because of the base maps we used, but you see a lot of that area would be inundated. even if it's only half as much, there's still a lot of expensive puc infrastructure that's going to be under water. under the heading of sharing the pain, i want to point out that bcdc's objectives will also be hard hit by sea level rise. over the past 40 years, we have required a lot of public access along the shore line of the bay, about a hundred miles of it. and a lot more access has been provided in public parks and through the bay trail. much of this could well be lost. now, after all this talk of doom and gloom, i have to put a caveat in here. bay waters won't rise slowly like -- and evenly like water filling a bathtub. the tide comes in, the tide goes out. so what we're talking about are trends in mean sea level. i prefer to use the term climate change to global warming when we're talking about this phenomenon we're dealing with because overall while the earth's atmosphere will be getting warmer, some places will

and then the city council bailed us out and gave us enough support to keep this school open. $1.5 million last year. we went back, asked again, and they granted that wish. and we're just relieved and pleased. and we know we're not out of the woods yet. we have a long-term solution that we have to come up, but putting our heads together, work together, we believe we can do that working with the city. >> reporter: well, ultimately the city decided to do this, but i believe there was one council member that had some concerns that perhaps the schoolboard was using the city as an atm, going back for more money. what do you say to that? >> last night that was a common theme that was put out there by councilman bates, but he's a well-intentioned person, been on the council far while, and i think he was just expressing his frustration about the current situation and know that cities and schools traditionally haven't had a collaboration. but now moving forward in the future, 21st century thinking, we have to find every way to fund our schools. so the city coming together with us to make this happe

the events of the past few weeks have kept us busy. we are working to support direct talks between the israelis and palestinians, and next week i will travel to egypt and jerusalem for the second round of these negotiations. in iraq where the combat mission has ended, we are transitioning to an unprecedented civilian-led partnership. we are stepping up international pressure anhalon iran. we're working with pakistan as it recovers from the devastating floods and continues to combat violent extremism. and of course, the war in afghanistan is always at the top of our minds and agenda. none of these challenges exist in isolation. consider the middle east peace talks. at one level they are bilateral negotiations involving two people and a relatively small strip of land. step back and it becomes clear how close the regional dimensions of what started last week are. what a significant role institutions like the quartet, consisting of the united states and russia and the european union and the u.n., as well as the arab league, are playing. eq
